RYAN REYNOLD WOULD RETURN FOR JUSTICE LEAUGE IF SCRIPT IS RIGHT!

Not yet," Reynolds responds, when asked by Empire magazine if he has got a call about the Justice League movie. "I don't know. If you're gonna do comic book movies in that vein, you really have to get them right. I believe that Joss Whedon is the guy that just nails it and Christopher Nolan obviously nails it. So if they were gonna do it like that, it would be an interesting thing to do.

"It's just that... working on Green Lantern, I saw how difficult it is make that concept palatable," Reynolds continues. "And how confused it all can be when you don't really know exactly where you're going with it or you don't really know how to access that world properly - that world comic book fans have been accessing for decades and falling in love with. So at this point I have very little interest in joining that kind of world. But, you know, a great script and a good director can always turn that around."

SMALLVILLES AQUAMAN CAST AS RAPHAEL IN MICHEAL BAYS NINJA TURTLES!

LATEST NEWS

'Smallville' Star Alan Ritchson is Raphael in the New 'Ninja Turtles'

 

Producer Michael Bay and director Jonathan Liebesman have been fighting an uphill battle against hardcore fans with their new take on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ever since it was discovered that the heroes in a half shell were being converted from mutants to aliens and the title was officially just Ninja Turtles. The movie has encountered a few budget issues, and despite Bay's assertion that fans should just calm down, the backlash continued when Megan Fox was cast as April O'Neil last month. Now Deadline reports that Paramount and Platinum Dunes have cast "Smallville" actor Alan Ritchson as Raphael. Wait, who is that?
Ritchson played Arthur Curry aka Aquaman on the long-running CW series, and he just wrapped shooting the highly-anticipated sequel The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, in which he'll play a knife-wielding tribute from District One named Gloss. In Ninja Turtles, the cast members playing the iconic heroes will trade out the rubber suits from the original for a modern motion capture suit (much like Avatar). While Deadline calls this a "good role" for Ritchson, his part in the film won't be all that great if the script isn't worth a damn, and with the supposedly leaked screenplay and damage controlled bad buzz already surrounding this movie, it looks like we have reason to worry, not to mention the underwhelming Liebesman at the helm.
I know a lot of fans don't like it, but I'm cool with Megan Fox as April O'Neil, and I'm sure Ritchson will make a fine Raphael. We won't write this movie off completely without seeing a trailer, but Bay and Liebesman have a lot of work to do if they want to win over fans before this film hits theaters. Ninja Turtles still has a May 16th, 2014 release date in place, up against Gareth Edwards' Godzilla remake. Thoughts

No New DC Movies Until After Justice League: Is DC Intimidated by Marvel's Success?

• 13 March, 2013

 

Over the years, DC Comics—who are owned by Warner Bros.—have had successful film franchises for Superman and Batman. However, despite their long history and wealth of characters, they’ve never had a hit hero franchise that didn’t have the Man of Steel or the Dark Knight involved. Currently they have no plans to even try until they see how the Justice League movie does. Is DC perhaps a bit intimidated by Marvel’s recent mega-success at movies?

DC Comics has been around since the 1930s and it has some of the most recognizable super-heroes in the world...Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, etc. Everyone knows them. These names are arguably better known worldwide than Iron Man or Thor. With this huge stable of characters to work with, you’d think DC-- reorganized into DC Entertainment a few years ago--would be rolling out a non-stop cavalcade of projects. However, No other DC projects are officially in the works except Justice League and the already completed Man of Steel. No other in-consideration DC super hero film has a script, a producer, a director or a cast.
Contrast this with Marvel, who have several successful franchises going now—The Avengers, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America—and will be adding the Guardians of the Galaxy very soon, as well as Ant-Man and Doctor Strange. There is also the strong possibility of a Hulk sequel starring Mark Ruffalo, following Avengers 2. Add to that Amazing Spider Man 2, and X-Men: Days of Future Past, and Marvel is on a major roll!
So what is DC/Warner Bros. thinking? They say they are waiting to see how Man of Steel performs before they commit themselves to anything. They have spoken about a possible Batman reboot franchise but nothing else seems to be getting serious consideration. The Justice League film, although currently stuck in development hell, seems a sure thing. But of course, the Justice League will feature two guys you may have heard of—Superman and Batman.
DC’s current strategy is to do the opposite of what Marvel is doing. Instead of combining multiple hero franchises into one super-team film; they are going to use the super-team film to launch several franchises. They hope that the introduction of modern versions of Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter and Green Lantern will be so well received in the JL movie that the spin-offs will succeed better.
Since the creation of DC Entertainment a few years back, the only non-Bat, non-Kryptonian film they have attempted is the much maligned Green Lantern, which has made them gun-shy about any project that doesn’t have a bat-signal or a red cape with an ‘S’ on it.
DC has been resting their hopes on Christopher Nolan, who directed the successful Batman series and is now overseeing the Man of Steel. However, Nolan has recently made it clear that he doesn’t want to be involved in the Justice League movie — which means that he won’t be the guiding Godfather for DC that Joss Whedon is for Marvel. This was a crushing blow for Warner Bros., which had been hoping that the popular Nolan would connect his red-hot name to the Justice League and its spin-offs.
Without Nolan, DC has to find a new guiding Godfather to oversee its ‘Universe’. Hopefully, whomever becomes Whedon’s DC counterpart will have a better vision for these characters and we’ll start seeing more DC projects in the near future.

 

TV'S GREEN ARROW STEPHEN AMELL TO VOICE ARROW IN INJUSTICE GODS AMONG US!

Injustice: Gods Among Us

Stephen Amell's got game. Literally. The Arrow star is bringing his superhero alias to the highly anticipated video game Injustice: Gods Among Us.

Amell, who plays Oliver Queen on the hit CW series, is lending his voice (and likeness) for a variation on Green Arrow in the game, which is based on the DC Comics universe. Players can unlock the Arrow character, an alternate version (or "skin," in gaming parlance) of the game's default setting, which is the classic comic book incarnation of the Emerald Archer.

Injustice — developed by NetherRealm Studios, creators of the popular Mortal Kombat games — is an ambitious production, with intense fighting elements and an extensive storyline along the lines of a Hollywood blockbuster. DC Comics' most iconic characters are featured, including Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, the Flash, Lex Luthor, the Joker and Catwoman.

Among the voice cast is fan favorite Kevin Conroy as Batman, a character he originated in Batman: The Animated Series and has played in countless animated shows, movies and video games. George Newbern is Superman, a role he played on Cartoon Network's Justice League, and animation vet Tara Strong (The Powerpuff Girls, The Fairly Oddparents) is Harley Quinn.

Injustice: Gods Among Us goes on sale April 16 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii U.
